 Please, not, please support /boot.config. loader.conf could be too late
in case of serial consoles.

 I wonder, why EFI/UEFI and GPt booting (which should be more advanced)
is more limited than classic MBR/boot0 + boot1 + loader scheme :-(

 Serial console support is worse. Selection of boot partition is not
supported (as opposide to very-simple-516-bytes boot0!), and so on :-(
